LOL - as i looked closer at one picture, I'm not very confident that the bracelet is authentic Rolex. It's pretty amazing, but the value is not quite there. The clasp doesn't have the crown on the back - but i thought that might just be an odd angle on the photo. Then I realized from the final picture that showed the inside of the clasp that there was nothing close to what is normally on the inside clasp (Rolex insignia).

The watch is an old 1811 with a stunning gold rope bracelet....very rare to see that combination (and no real documentation on many of the early day-dates). Apparently it was not uncommon for dealers to change the bracelet by request - Rolex was not nearly as restrictive as they are now.

http://www.feelway.com/gv_today_2281053656.html

the shop is called WOW Watches - which cracked me up - but then there seem to be more than a few business in Busan, Korea that are called WOW-something.

The city looks quite interesting...lots of beach in the city proper.

If anyone can translate the website and has some insight (or that I'm wrong about the bracelet), let me know - i still like the idea of roadtrip much more than a 12 step meeting

They have a store (in Busan) and they have been doing business for 20 years.
With the watch, you get a 1 year warranty.
The store website is: http://wowwatch.cafe24.com
Feelway is just a kind of portal like ebay but that accepts only recognized vendors (as far as i know).
Not many feedback on this vendor but if they have a store it should be legit.
